Cracks down on third‑party coordination among food producers. It makes it illegal for food producers to hire a “coordinator” to help align prices, supply, output, or other deal terms, and it bans coordinators from facilitating those agreements. Violations are treated as automatic antitrust offenses.
The Federal Trade Commission, the U.S. Department of Justice, and State attorneys general can enforce the law. People and businesses harmed can sue in federal court for triple damages, interest, and attorney fees, and contract clauses that force arbitration or ban joint actions can’t be used to block these cases. The Act does not change existing federal antitrust laws, does not preempt stronger State, Tribal, or local rules, and includes a standard severability clause.
